Re: Irish Unity

Yes, a million euro each and I think we would all feck aff back to Scotland! Would also buy some pad with panoramic sea views on the Devon or Cornwall coast if you were that way inclined. It would take much less for me to vote for unity..... a simple indication that I'd be financially better off or...

Re: Irish Unity

If I was offered One Million pounds (or even euros) to vote for a United Ireland I suppose I would have to think long and hard about it and might well vote YES. But I very much doubt that that offer is going to happen so I don't waste much of my time lying in bed at night thinking or worrying about...

Re: Biblical matters

'It proves there is logical inconsistencies with Roman Catholic doctrine' Religious faith is a logical inconsistency. Why single out Catholicism in that regard? 'I have never been to and refuse to attend 11th/12th/13th 'celebrations' because it is a waste of time.' I don't know why you're bringing ...

Re: Biblical matters

Youse are spitting hairs lads. There's much bigger theological debates out there. Such as, who's more Pradestant, Mooslims or Hindoos and whose flegs should leylists be buying, India's or Pakistan's? Have you seen the colour of thon Indian fleg? Can't see that fluttering from the lamp posts on Sand...

Re: Biblical matters

You haven't answered my question about Henry VIII. You stated 'Henry VIII split the CoI from Rome and so on and is still celebrated quite widely today among Protestant churches'. Why is he still celebrated among Protestant churches? To my knowledge, he didn't have any theological differences with th...

Re: Biblical matters

Eh? All I said is that no protestant denomination (speaking generally about Baptist/Pres, CoI) has a church-wide history of child abuse, unlike the RC church. It has nothing to do with theology and doctrine, my point was that the theology of a protestant (in the reformed sense, not bang the drum/ma...

For years Ireland existed in two bits long before both bits were in the EU

So what's different

Re: Six Nations 18/19

According to Murray Kinsella, Sexton was drunk off at Stockdale when he came off. https://mobile.twitter.com/Murray_Kinsella/status/1100035734579412995 Sexton has been a whinge his whole career.

Re: Irish Unity

The biggest irony in it all is, if Arlene had 2 brain cells to rub together - she'd have negotiated a deal where this place was best of both worlds (in fact, this was the deal that was on offer about 18 months ago that she rejected out of hand). It would have secured the economy of this place, the ...

Re: Irish Unity

Irish Unity ..that old chestnut. An Island never that has never been truly united from the FirBolgs to the Gaels ,Vikings ,Dalriada,Normans ,Saxons and all manner of Colour between them. A unity of hearts must occur before fiscal unity. That wont happen anytime soon, I fear unless We abandon the cu...

Re: Irish Unity

I've heard people talk of some sort of federal arrangement but that would keep a parliament of sorts at Stormont and that's the last thing we need. I agree. If we're going to have an agreed new Ireland, at least let's have one Parliament with some grown up politics going on inside. I don't fancy be...
